data is break in http post request when there is & sign in json string

Question

I have one json string , string is below.

 {  
   "assigned_to":1,
   "type":0,
   "email":[  
      {  
         "value":"mobile@gmail.com",
         "is_primary":1,
         "type":1,
         "type_id":1
      }
   ],
   "first_name":"Mr Mobile",
   "salutation_id":1,
   "links":[  
      {  
         "company":"Mobile",
         "relation":"CEO & Founder",
         "cmp_id":1
      }
   ],
   "phone":[  
      {  
         "code":"",
         "value":"",
         "is_primary":1,
         "phone_type":"1",
         "country_code_value":""
      }
   ],
   "photo":"",
   "last_name":""
}

When i pass this data using http and post method then string is break after & sign.

My http post request code is like this.

NOTE: JSON.stringify(this.formData) returns above string

$http.post(APP.API + 'contacts', 'data=' + JSON.stringify(this.formData)).
                    success(function(data, status, headers, config) {


                    }).
                    error(function(data, status, headers, config) {

                        // debugger;
                        Notification.error(data.msg);
                    });

What is passed in this request , please find below screen shot of the network.click here

This screen shot is after remove 'data=+' remove from request: click here

data is break after & in relation key.

Please help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance

In that case you'd need to refer to the documentation of the API to see what format it expects data in. Also, check the console to see exactly what the error returned is — Rory McCrossan, Jul 20 '17 at 06:55

There is nothing wrong in your code. Do you have any interceptors in your code? — Rishi0405, Jul 20 '17 at 07:10
I once encountered same problem as yours, I solved that by using `` in my header part of `index.html` — Aayushi Jain, Jul 20 '17 at 07:13
